I'm still coming back from my cuboid stress fracture -- and that happened in early October! Ack!

I was scheduled for a bone scan, since my fracture took SO long to heal (months longer than expected!) but they took so long to schedule the scan - over a month - that January hit and my deductible reset. No thanks to a $500 bone scan when I was feeling better already (and yes, the radioactive stuff - scary and I don't want to do it lightly). Hope yours shows a definitive diagnosis and gives you some answers!

I totally understand why they can't do refunds, but several races have either started letting people defer or transfer their entries by a certain date for a fee, which I feel like is a really good & fair way of dealing with people's realities when you plan something (that depends on your health!) months & months & advance. So I hope we see more of that in the future.Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01781340220581385624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8576247921509925121.post-18205418113310469312014-01-21T19:07:56.504-08:002014-01-21T19:07:56.504-08:00I KNOW RIGHT??

Because it's the worst, and it's super annoying, and I'm living in fear of getting swine flu, even though these things are probably completely unrelated. <br /><br />Second, hooray for being far into healing already, no matter what's going on. And hooray for nice race directors.<br /><br />Third, what do you want your superpower to be? Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
